My son got cold and cough along with fever since 3 days . He is taking nebulization with asthalin and budecort . For fever he is taking calpol and meftal in case of high fever.i am giving calpol 2 times a day . But generally he is getting high fever at evening and then if i give calpol it goes down . Then again he gets high fever at night 3am or 4am . I am little worried for him. Doctor suggested all this medication and said its viral. Please let me know how long it would last And is there anything to worry

Calpol is usually given 4 times a day with a gap of 6 hrs in between.   So no harm in giving for 4 times .
